Wizz Air

We were booked to fly Ryanair nonstop from Budapest to Berlin in October, but Ryanair just cancelled our flight. The only other nonstop is on Wizz Air. Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, with that airline?

I flew Wizz Air from Budapest to Eindhoven and was very pleased, but this was several years ago. I had a river cruise that ended in Budapest.

I fly them regularly and they are absolutely fine. Like any low cost carrier when booking you need to be careful about selecting the right baggage allowance etc. They will try to upsell you every step of the way so just be alert.

If you were willing to fly Ryan (I do), then Wizz Air won’t be much different. I’ve flown them in the past - they are budget but reliable.

I the last 12 months or so I have flown them from Valencia to Budapest, from Budapest to Montenegro and back (twice), from Budapest to Zadar and back, from Budapest to and from Rome and in about 6 weeks I have a reservation from Budapest to and from Montenegro. Yea, they are "okay". Heck, they are darn near perfect for getting from Point A to Point B. Efficient and generally very close to being on time. Not the worst seats either, but really doesnt matter on a 1 to 2 hour flight.
